A lot of stuff about him being sh*t on here.
I've never seen him play, and wouldn't know that much about him. A lot of people seem to "have a Southampton mate" who say he's no good. In League One.
He's a bit of a riddle, this bloke.
He seems to be considered "poor" in League One, and yet he was superb at Millwall in a higher league, and did really well in his spell at Blackpool - in the Premier League.
Scored only 3 in 34 games in League One for Saints.
Scored 8 in 18 for Millwall & Blackpool last season in the higher leagues.
Saints fans don't like him, apparently. But the view of Millwall & Blackpool fans, in higher leagues??
Maybe a very talented player who just lost his way at Southampton, and just didn't fit? But did really well with managers (Ian Holloway & Kenny Jacket) who gave him a chance at higher levels than Saints in div 3?
Maybe with the right manager and the confidence from what he did last season at Millwall and Blackpool, he might not be as "sh*t" as Saints fans would have us believe?
Warnock obviously rates him, and can see something. So does Sam Allardyce, if reports are true.
Like I said - I don't know because I haven't seen him enough, but it's just an alternative view on him.
